A make-ahead salad is a thing of magic, combining hearty greens, beans, and grains and letting them luxuriate in a vinaigrette for days. Our favorites include a fresh bean and bulgur salad, a feta-studded lentil salad that improves in the fridge, and a kale salad with chickpeas, broccoli slaw, and a citrusy dressing. |
This is precisely the work lunch you always wish you had packed, with lots of lentils to keep you full until at least 3 p.m., kale, salty olives, crunchy nuts, and just the right amount of cheese. And it’s all dressed in a lemony, garlicky spiced oil. |
